## What it is
HackGen (Hakugen) is a programming font that merges the Latin monospace font Hack with the Japanese GenJyuu-Gothic typeface, built via Shell/FontForge scripts. It offers multiple families (HackGen, Console, 3:5 width variants, Nerd Fonts versions) with Powerline symbols and readability tweaks for Japanese text.

## Use cases
- programming font with Japanese character support
- monospace font for coding with full-width half-width 1:2 alignment
- font with Powerline glyphs for terminal prompts
- font that visualizes full-width spaces and breaks pipe characters
- Nerd Fonts icons combined with Japanese programming font
- readable font for editors mixing Japanese and English text

## When to choose
- you write code or documents mixing Japanese and Latin text in an editor or terminal
- you want Ricty-like Japanese programming font under an open license
- you need Powerline or Nerd Fonts icons in a Japanese-capable monospace font

## When to avoid
- you need only Latin monospace without Japanese glyphs
- you require a strictly standardized license (license is marked NOASSERTION)
- you need a variable or proportional UI font

- function: developer-tools
